Indeed, Kristoff and Demare fighting it out, potentially Degenkolb - how many points for a win?
Looks like their all in a sprinters group at the back. Safety (from the time cut off) in numbers?
Sagan is with Demare , 11 minutes back .
Imagine if all the sprinters miss time cut today in Grupetto? There'll be no-one over 50kg left in the race
Worth sticking £10 on Froome to win the Paris Sprint?!!
I'd love Yates to do something today, but he's in strong company at the moment. The last climb will be interesting for GC, but expect G to survive OK.
Really hope Sagan can make it home. If he does I expect he'll be close to last on the ITT!
EDIT: as Yates falls away from the lead group! 🙂
Bardet hasn’t given up yet 👍☄️
Haven't seen Sagan on tv for about 1/2hr..
Wonder what he looks like 🗿😳
Haven’t seen Sagan on tv for about 1/2hr.
Just heard (on tv) that he is back in the grupetto but haven't seen him
@19’ at Tourmalet
it's getting EXCITING!
Pouls gone for Sky with 50km still to go, this might give them a challenge.
This is playing into Sky's hands. Lotto need to defend Roglic's position and hence need to chase Landa and to some degree, Bardet. The pace isn't electric as BMC and Merida are still in the reduced peloton. G and four other Sky riders are getting a free ride for now.
Ned just said Sagan is ok for now.
Was that Kwiato checking Facebook there? Maybe he got a text off Portal?
I'm gonna miss all these day time adverts, will the watchfinder guy every ride above a snails pace? will the sunlife neighbours move on from flirting over parsnips and sexy death insurance talk to an actual affair? will the guy with the knackered car ever afford to pay back his loan?
Landa trying to drop Bardet and Roglic away from the Sky group.
Nope, it's Kruijswijk not Roglic, he's got a minute.
Dumoulin up the road with G and Roglic, Froome is in trouble here.
you've got to love Dumoulin for taking the race to them really
loling at Jonnyboi, How will I afford my own funeral?!?!
Martin goes in what i suspect will be a futile attack.
Rojloc off with Tom and Geraint, Mr Cheese getting distanced by about 100mtrs..
Bloody hell, Cheesy is giving it loads and still being distanced... only 40’ to the Bardet Group....
commentators "there be no attacks" bang bang bang
Clive Cheese looks absolutely empty..
jesus, what a time to cut to ads
oh that road is narrow
G could get the stage at this rate!
Bernal, what a ride to help Froome!!
TD out desends G I think- no?
Bernal. Wow!
Wonder what the descent is like in this low cloud?
Bernal amazing.
Likewise those horses.
balls of solid steel on that descent
I can't watch this
froome round three riders at least heading down there
Zakarin surprised he's still upright
I fear for Zakarin's health watching this. Get on the drops man!
I don't think he can reach them
Zakarin aka Bambi
got it on radio and text, and I've got no nails left. Rubber side down!! Please!
Froome’s losing his podium.
G gets another 6” bonus
sets up a blinding time trial stage tomorrow for the podium.
does Roglic have a nickname? didn't he used to be a ski jumper?
didn’t he used to be a ski jumper?
Yep
For what it’s worth, Giro 2017 stage 10
The Dutch national champion used his huge power to set a time of 50:37 for the 39.8km course, enough to beat Geraint Thomas (Team Sky) by 49 seconds, with Bob Jungels (Quick-Step Floors) third, seven seconds slower.
